Both strong picks and will give me a run for my money in a manner of speaking. I red thumbed Dell earlier in the year and should have stuck with it.

According to Thompson's on Nasdaq.com....analysts are still forecasting a $4 profit for MHK for 2008.....it will be interesting to see what happens once that number is revised to account for today's $20 per share loss and the institutions' black boxes pick up on it......where things really might get interesting is when upcoming quarter numbers get revised.

This doesn't sound like a very fair contest. If you're looking for the "most overvalued" viable company, it might take several years for the prices to correct. Plus, you picked the date that would be most beneficial to your pick :P

Fwiw, though, I'd say BIDU has to be in the competition for "most overvalued" --- I just don't think it will fully correct for at least a year or two. I also like the Dell pick above.

I hate whiners.....Its my game, my rules, and I am giving you my pick for free if you choose to red thumb it.....CAPs is the same way...we all have some gripes but the game is the game....either put up or don't play....either way I don't care.....I am just giving you a open shot to kick the hottest player in CAPs......that's all.

And if you win.....think how you can put me in my place.....I look forward to you joining in......even though I don't think there is another pick even close to mine in the time frame I have set out.

I admire your blatant attempt to create a contest that is basically rigged in your favor if you are correct on one single issue about one particular stock. Despite the almost insurmountable odds, I will go ahead and play just for fun, realizing that defeat is almost a certainty. :)

First, the rules are the same for all of us. Second, I gave you a chance to see my cards before you joined in...which benefit was not afforded to me. Third, no one is holding a gun to your head. Fourth, in the end we all benefit.
